The gameplay remains the same. Plus I dislike what they have done to the music. It's a setback compared to the Sega CD version.
Well, actually its because Tommy Tallarico have the rights of music and SE, and HE told them that he could give them the sound effects and music, but Interplay said No, Thanks. Stupid move, if you ask me. -

Why do people hate this so much? There's not much wrong with it, from what I can tell.
It's missing big bruty from the sega cd and windows 95 version. The earthworm by the life counter is fanart and one of the level's background is from little nemo (Not the nes game the pixar movie) artwork that is why people hate it.
Four simple words, guys.
EASIER THAN THE ORIGINAL.
Probably the most funny videogame ever. This release is amazing.
I’d say it’s surreal to see a remastered version of this game.
What strange about this version is that there was a Sega CD version of this game. It added an extra area to New Junk City and added a new level. This version keeps the extra area, but removed the new level.
While i can see why many people dislike the HD remake. There are some things i do like about it...
I do like the intro showing Jims backstory. It looks nice too. The multiplayer mode looks kinda fun, i just wish there was more to it, like why can't there be a second player in the main story? It may not make sense for there to be two earthworm jims. But the Co-op does not have to correlate with the story.
I honestly wish the remake had more to it.
Like, there should have been an option where you can switch between remastered versions of the SNES or Genesis version. It doesn't have to be a mix between both....hell, you should be able to have the Remastered themes be optionally replaced with the originals!
And as a cosmetic bonus, if you managed to collect all the "earth" "Worm" and "Jim" tokens from earthworm jim 2 in each level, you will unlock the option to change earthworm jims animations and Sound clips to reflect off his appearance in earthworm Jim 2. Any you missed can be recollected by Revisiting a level in the Level Select, something i wish was also added to this game.
The game doesn't seem downright terrible, its just lacking several things that could have made the experience better.
Like, where was that one exclusive level that was in the sega genesis release? They added the Duodenum level, but not it?
The funny thing is that the Genesis was the original target platform. Hell, the Sega CD and original PC versions already had a remastered soundtrack.
I think they went overboard with the sound effects, especially in "What the Heck?" -- it's distracting.
This remake isn't bad, but it could have been much better. It should have at least had all of the levels from the previous versions. A remake should always be the new definitive version; otherwise, there's no point to remaking it.
Also, I miss the Rocket weapon.
I can't tell you how many times I've just been sitting around the house, or making a snack, or taking a shit, and I just went, "PlaAAAsma!". The only thing I feel I should complain about is that they took the levels, and broke them up into sections. The health bars are a nice touch, and while, yes, the difficulty is toned WAY down, it might be for the better. For example: the crows in New Junk City. I can't TELL you how many times they swooped in, took 10 health, grabbed me, then respaned and did it again. But now, there a little easier. And don't even get me started on those damned dogs.
Seriously, “what the heck” is up with those flames making fart noises in What the heck!? did the game itself decided to make it become it’s own version of the bog of stench?
It feels like it trying to keep the spirit of the original. Which to be fair is better then being soulless
Perfect
Wow, they SERIOUSLY ramped the difficulty on the Andy Asteroids levels something fierce! They weren't nearly half as bad in the 16-bit versions, but here it's like you have maybe a second to react before you smash into an asteroid, and it's a lot harder to "tell" where they will collide with you!
20:34 Andy Asteroid Quotes:
1. Look! They're meatballs!
2. I'm a rocket man!
HD stands for high disappointment.
Everyone here criticizing the animations, music, and voice-acting...
But I'm just over here thinking about the fact that two levels are missing. "Who Turned Out The Lights?" and "Big Bruty" don't even exist in this version of the game, leaving me to wonder... "Why?" Were they perhaps intended to be released as DLC at some point?
Those levels are only from the Sega CD special edition, the Sega genesis version doesn't have those levels either, although I wonder why they did it based on the special edition in the first place.
The Genesis and even Super Nintendo versions DID include Who Turned Off the Lights @@ellocojoncrazy3270
looks good.. but... not the same.. in terms of the voice acting, there is just something about the Genesis version /sega CD
I'd prefer the Sega CD version.
I prefer the pc version
Yeah the cheese factor isn't quite there
B-MAN i Pefer the hd
I prefer the SNES
They need to stop remaking music and sfx in games. They need to just HD the graphics and walk away
i am sad this version is delisted. i have this on ps3 and it’s gorgeous to look at and the sound improvements as well
I love how well they managed to replicate the original game, but I'm not a fan of Jim's changed voice. I can see that they tried to get a voice similar to the original, but it just sounds weird to me.
Oh man this version sucks. Jim is missing a ton of animation frames, the new actor tries so hard but he's just annoying in comparison to the original, and the music sounds like shit.
***** That's probably for the better. Doug became a horrendous human being in most recent years.
Definitive Dubs
The only plus is that we have the exclusive battle arena mode.
@@JamesMSmithsDeadRUclipsChannel well he's displayed some views but probably not bad as a person
Hey at least appreciate the fact the creator tried
Oh its you.
Zero is waiting for the continuation of the dub.
I cant wair
I've just get here after watching a walk-through of the original and I'm shocked 'cuz the graphics and the changes that they did to that game
Am I the only one that I LOVE the HD version of this?
It's pretty good but
Where's Tomy tallarico
Where's Doug tennapel
And the voice acting it's...
Weird
Y E S
In the original jim used to sound like a crazy ass of a thing, but now he just sounds like the most average 22 year old adult.
Why does the music and voiceacting sound so lifeless? Why is the Original difficulty significantly easier than the Original game's difficulty? Why are there tips spoiling the weirdness? Why is every boss's animations sped up? WHERE'S THE ENDING!?!
Play the original. You'll like it more.
you are not the only one. but I agree that this version could have something more
+antroloco24 Well, they messed up the voices, took frames of animation out, messed up the art, added in crude humor that shouldn't have been there (and yes, I know, Buttville. The original creators still had class though), ****ed up the soundtrack, stole a fish from Finding Nemo for Down the Tubes, stole fanart for the ending level score head, the physics are all wonky, the game's WAY too easy even on Veteran or whatever, the new content doesn't feel at all like it belongs, turned the Lawyers into Bankers for no reason in What the Heck, didn't understand how the Tex Avery-esque cartooniness worked, made Andy Asteroids practically unplayable, and didn't even contact anyone from the original team to help in its production.
edward18517
"added in crude humor that shouldn't have been there"
Oh, and while you're at it, say 'hello' to EarthWorm Jim 3D for me okay?
You think that shit was acceptable either?
No?
edward18517 yeah f**k you
edward18517 щщ
The animation looks so restricted compared to the original.
Even though it has higher resolution it feels like it's less detailed.
Your brain isn't left any room to fill in the blanks anymore.
@@InsideOutAnus Well said
@@InsideOutAnus It feels like they used that AI enhancement stuff you see a lot nowadays on social media, where the AI fills in the blanks but makes everything just look smudgy and artificial.
The "Andy Asteroids" level looks pretty nice, I must admit, although it seems that it looks a bit more difficult to anticipate whether or not you'll hit asteroids compared to the original.
So far, just from watching "New Junk City," I have some things to say: the hints are somewhat annoying, and the boss fights look easier by far.
I think this was a good idea, but just put into the wrong hands. I know everything has to be prettier, but I'd just connect a laptop via HDMI cable to a TV and run an emulator of the original if I hadn't any other means.
When he gets the continue, he yells Oh Yeah! 😎👌
There needs to be an Earthworm Jim 2 HD.
No.
The music licensing is the problem for an Earthworm Jim 2 HD remake.
@@Smashy-rw8kr I miss Jim. Even the cartoons (or maybe mostly the cartoons) are pretty funny. I believe the closer we can get of it is running the Saturn version with a lot of filters (considering it will work properly) and think about it like some retro pixel art.
fuck earthworm jim 1 and 2 UHD we dont need it its suck balls.
@@shaitet Yes.
the music sux they should have used the music from the sega cd version which was amazing!
Fat Man 1945 I think is good.But nobody can compare the real music of the sega cd version
Dylan DoomSlayer But, it's an xbox 360, dude O.O
Sega CD?? Don't you mean Sega Genesis regular version?
@@nowonmetube Sega-CD/Mega-CD received an "enhanced" version of the first Earthworm Jim game some time after the original release. Just like Sega Saturn version of the second game, this disk one had a better music and a slightly updated graphics (animations) and gameplay due to the hardware capabilities, also, theres some extra stages exclusive on the CD version.
Or the genisis and SNES versions
2:10 is when the game actually starts. You're welcome.
Look how they massacred my boi
I changed the setting to 240p for the heck of it, and now I feel like I am watching the 16 bit versions.
It's very funny to hear "Ow!" in a southern accent at 4:45 lol 😂😂😂
Alpha, the rock moved!
I dont know why they made that superhero acheivement. go the whole game without dying? Were they high? I could never get past the last bubble segment in the underwater level when I owned the game on the sega gamegear
+Nanokoex Nobody could
Theres much harder things to beat in a game and from a scale from one to ten this is a six
@@Kaiju_King944 what about dark souls?
@@Kaiju_King944 lol no way in hell is this game just a six.
@@CrazyLikeUhFox difficulty is subjective
MEGA MAN MEGAMAN!!! You have to push the boxes into the spring to hurt the boss, MEgaMAN!!
*sigh* I miss the old days when we had to use our heads
12:19 - 12:27
The best moment in the game ever
pensé que no existía un remake de este hermoso juego :')
Anda, creí que era el unico español
Éste remake se ve y suena terrible en comparación con el juego original.
aparte le disminuyeron la dificultad abismalmente, nada como el de snes o sega cd
@@TheRealPatete No se ve terrible realmente, solo muy fácil
The team who was put in charge of this remake clearly had no idea of animation timing, which is quite unfortunate since the great animation of the original was one of its main gimmicks.
Based on the credits it looks like basically everything about this game was outsourced to China. Probably would’ve been better to have people with actual love for the original involved.
@@CrazyLikeUhFox Gameloft made it. Explains a lot.
Just miss Jim's original voice :(
34:40 is non-stop face-planting into asteroids
Yeah, I can see that many fans of the original version of the game didn’t like this one either.
By the time it was released, this “HD” remake already felt pretty stale, even by now too. It basically feels like an attempt to make a tribute (or at least a love letter) to the Earthworm Jim franchise after the two disasters that were EWJ3D and Menace 2 the Galaxy, but it failed miserably. But all I can just say is that there are some better video game remakes out there if you’re looking for a good one.
This remake looks nice, but isn't that great. They didn't have any of the original team work on this at all, nor approve of it, and it shows: everything looks new, but there's a huge lack of attention to detail and the game feels very unpolished and unloved.
The voices in this are just awful. Even if they couldn't get the original voice actor (Doug TenNapel), couldn't the guy at least not sound so high-pitched and labored?
The music is pretty bad too. I'm guessing that they couldn't license the original tracks from Tommy Tallarico and so they had to make some synthy crap version that loses the impact that 1990s video game music had.
The moment when i realized this was a lousy remake was when i saw Evil The Cat's "Mauling" Animation where he harmlessly spins around Jim before just casually leaving. And then i noticed he doesn't even have claws or any of the edgy shapes of the original. It's like they fucking shaved him and clipped his claws so he wouldn't scare children lmao.
@@mikeax24
I was about to say, I’m sure I remember him pantsing Jim when he hit you lmao
They didn't even include "Who Turned Out The Light" either, which was in the original Mega Drive version as well as the Mega CD version.
I know the hell level had farts sometimes when you jumped, but now in the HD version every fire sounds like someone taking a shit.
Having watched a little more. It's amazing how the music in this sounds even more like low-quality synthy 16-bit audio than the original 16-bit versions of this game. Maybe they just dropped the 16-bit version's notes into a MIDI synthesizer and threw it in this game.
sounds awesome to me
I don’t think SNES had that stomach stage with the little yellow stomach looking boss.
I liked this HD version but nowdays I still prefer the original game on the Sega Genesis and his cartoony sound from the 90's.
Very good sprite art.
Originals are way better.
Even Game Gear, at least I don't have to listen to this voice
Does this use a emulator? Because Xbox 360 always break so you might of used a emulator.
I love sonic hat kid earthworm Jim and olimar there my favourite video game characters
This version holds your hand every step of the way.
Hopefully it's not like that in original mode.
you can turn the hints off
where's the Princess in the ending? that was the best part.
He was playing on the wrong difficulty level.
Holy crap, this just vomits all over the charm of the original.
I Mean. Its Gameloft. What Did Ya Expect?
@@litten3578 they made that one spiderman game though and that was pretty good
The Original has more soul.
Nonsense, It most certainly didn't the excellent use of sound effects for a start, the dramatic build up towards the "battle" with Bob the goldfish, engines noises on Andy Asteroids. Creaking chains, etc.. It's really quite good and I love the backgrounds!
I´m only honest.
@@hihosh1 That's all it has. Animation is missing frames, Jim's new voice sucks ass, they stole fan art someone made for the life icon and level complete menu, they fucking STOLE A FISH FROM FINDING NEMO FOR DOWN THE TUBES.
This HD version is fucking trash, and it took what gave the original it's heart and soul and turned it into that one generic game you find on XBLA and PSN, coupled with a huge amount of shadiness with stolen assets and fan art, missing levels, and unnecessarily crude humor. Even the original had more class then this.
Now, a Christian Whitehead-like port with widescreen, original graphics, and the CD quality music would be much better then this quick generic cash-grab that is Earthworm Jim HD. Oh yeah, and put it on other platforms too that isn't a damn phone.
All the bosses need a life bar in this remake....They didn't have them in the original....LOL
....yes it is a remake. They've completely redone the graphics and everything. And even then, it's very crappily done HD. They even cut ****ing frames out of the animations. The Genesis and Super Nintendo versions looked better. The only thing HD has going for it is some of the backgrounds.
LOL, what's up with this horrible comment section? They are making rants for the most insignificant things of all, it seems that they do not know that it is an HD version, what did they expect? the same shit with a horrible filter? It is the same game.
This game is a perfect example of why AI upscaling looks awful. Pause the game during the inbetween frames of Jim’s animations and tell me it looks better than the pixel art.
looks great to me
The terrain looks mostly fine, but the player sprites could definitely have been reanimated by hand imo. Snot a Problem has Jim literally having Wario's nose when he's shoulderbashing. Or when he's using the helicopter in the regular levels you can see the pixels on the smear frames from the OG sprites.
It's also missing frames, like a lot of them. It looks clunky, unfinished. Backgrounds are terrible as well, Snot a Problem specially looks like ASS
I don't remember the last time I was this let down by a remake...
That For Pete's Sake level is insane towards the end.
When a game has a trial on the PS store you download the entire game via the trial, then the game itself is just an unlock key to gain access to the whole thing.
Bottom line: Don't screw around with a classic.
Unless you do a good job, like in spongebob battle for bikini bottom rehydrated’s case
What's so dumb is that they could have just scanned the original art for HD.
no one talkin about the ending? no ur'e the best and no cuscene!
In this version you don't get the proper ending unless you play on a high enough difficulty (at least Hard, I think).
I have played the iPhone version but I can't anymore because iOS 11 doesn't support it (I beat the iOS version in early 2013)
But I can still play the DSi version but I suck at Level 5
And I never played the XBOX or PS3 versions I wish I could though
The iOS, DSi, XBOX and PS3 versions were created by Gameloft. The other versions were created by Shiny Entertainment (Except for the GBA version, which was created (and in most people's opinions, screwed up) by Majesco)
Now we need Earthworm Jim 2 HD.
Please no, this terrible remake was enough suffering.
No, Earthworm Jim 2 is perfect
Graphics are excellent! Music and voice acting, not so much
I don’t know, I liked the title screen music
All of it is terrible, especially the graphics. Completely kills the charm of the original. Saddest fucking thing is, if the original Shiny team had been contacted to make Earthworm Jim HD, they woud've reused all their original assets like their hand drawn animations and Jim's original voice clips in high definition. (Thankfully the DOS version still has them.) This game was just a travesty and Interplay should never have had permission to make it.
@@corralzin4909 The AI upscaling looks artificial and bad.
How do you make a remake of this game and *not* get either Doug TenNapel or Dan Castellaneta to voice Jim? That's all I want to know. Seriously. Scott Shaw is no Doug TenNapel. (Neither is Dan Castellaneta, but Dan voiced Jim in _3D_ and the TV show, so there is that.)
Joseph Collins I prefer Dan's voice. I dunno, he has a lot more personality.
30:00
That music tho
Everybody complaining about the music? I had the snes version back then, for me it's the original 😂🤷♂️
That's because Special Edition is not looping the song fully. Its second part consists of an excellent guitar riff.
Bro down the tubes is LITERALLY the hardest level of the game i could never get past that sht
Jesus were you AIMING for the asteroids?
some moments from the HD remake are ok but the game is a pile of crap.... I'm going back the the Real HD remake (Special Edition even tho it isn't HD)
@@codyryan9789 Anything is better than the GBA Earthworm Jims. This remake is still a pile of crap.
Lol, why? It's the exact same game with visual enhancements. It's amazing how fussy some people are.
Yeah, sometimes murkier sound does fit better. Like the evil laughing coats in the dark forest level of DKC2. The echo effect makes it sound a little creepier and therefore better fits the mood of a haunted forest. As for EJHD, it's mostly the voices I have a problem with. Like Jim and the Crows. They just sound way too clear. You can practically hear the sound booth itself. I'm not saying games should never be remade in HD. I'm just saying that the parts have to match up
No Big Bruty Stage?
Earthworm Jim for Smash Bros Ultimate
Just realized the intro music is the same as "for pete's sake" stage
Why they had to do redo the entire ost bruh
They've could used the sega CD one bruh
The HD remake looks worse than the original. Nice. lol
Part of the original charms are finding your ways around the levels and discovering the right way to defeat the bosses. And here we have arrows pointing at the direction you need to take and hints that tell u exactly how to defeat the bosses.
What happened to the ending?
It kinda dumbed down (?)
WOAH NELLY!!!
I had the sega cd version of this...cool voice acting, and it had the afro costume in it as well!
Aren't those the fishes from finding nemo the yellow tang?
I love the idea behind it but just by seeing this I can tell is not as good as the original in any way, and don't get me wrong the original has its flaws but it just looks, sounds and plays better than this, is a shame I was really hoping to play this.
You prefer this game on SEGA?
I wish this game has it on my Xbox Series X to play.
You got it?
@@te_amo_cr7182 Got what bro?
Umm... Why is this version slower than the original? It's also missing some animation frames.
where the little mushroom cloud that came out of the suite when he dies and his head falls into it
come on, what is this?!
awful audio, hints and hp showing with boss, I even finished this original version game at 10 years old!
after completed donkey kong series, this is like.. meh.. (levelled up!)
There is a original difficulty option C:
Where is my ending?
Unfortunately, he was playing on the wrong difficulty.
How to spoil a perfect game with savings, hints, achievements and unlockables.
Yes, because saving your game is a bad thing.
I'm fine with everything but hints, not liking saving is just stupid in my opinion, it's frustrating having your progress not save.
TheSteelShow A save that would have kept the original’s difficulty is one that deleted on GameOvers
Love the HD graphics and the remastered audio, dislike the arrows, hints, health bars and the score. The 2nd Scuba level before "fighting" bob the goldfish was a nightmare and a source of frustration when I first played this on Sega Mega Drive II some time ago. Now it looks like cake walk... And fighting Queen Slug-For-A-Butt was a guess work for me. I didn't know she could die from just normal gunfire, I had a wild theory you had to finish her off with the head whip...
+Nihilanth In Genesis version final boss dies instantly when whipped.
@@5434345 Yup, and only in that version. That trick isn't even in the SEGA CD version either.
Lol didn't even play for the true ending.
this looks like a GROOVY game!
you should check out Special Edition
Me recuerda a la versión de DS y la de iphone
37:10 The only thing I have to say about Psycrow’s failed attempts onto now is the line he said in the cartoon: “Maximum suckage.”
It would be cool on these remakes if they added more new levels. Why cant we get a new earthworm jim 3 with these graphics though instead of just remakes?
I would agree the extra loud fart noises in the what heck are kind of annoying more than anything.
Joe Franlin If they did Earthworm Jim 3 I'd want the original team doing it again. HD was a disaster compared to 1 and 2.
edward18517 It was 2010. Don't expect this to be 2015 steam stuff.
Why does the music and voiceacting sound so lifeless? Why is the Original difficulty significantly easier than the Original game's difficulty? Why are there tips spoiling the weirdness? Why is every boss's animations sped up? WHERE'S THE ENDING!?!
What the fuck developers.
gameloft developed this game, I don't know why, it would be better if it were vicarious visions, the remaster they made with crash bandicoot n. sany trilogy was very good.
uh, excuse me, but a REMAKE is supposed to improve the original. And this is quite a crappy way to reintroduce him, especially considering Dave Perry himself ridiculed it.
